We all have set routines in life, especially during the week, that may involve some variation of the following: Wake up, exercise, tea or coffee break(s), work, lunch, chat with friends, walk the dog, dinner, TV, read, sleep. The cycle then repeats all over again with similar events. From a macro perspective, quite a simple and non-remarkable daily […]

We all start out so precious, so pure. We arrive into this world innocent, helpless, vulnerable creatures blessed with the power of infinite potential. Armed with baby powder and porcelain skin, we are like a car driving off the dealer lot with that new car smell and immaculate paint job. We are loved, pampered, protected […]

I walked into the Emergency Room lobby for the third time in six months, knowing full well they could not help me.  But it calmed my racing mind just simply to be in the halls of the hospital. It was an ironic place to seek comfort – surrounded by pain – but oddly it felt […]

There are so many myths and misconceptions regarding the proper workout to achieve your fitness goals and overall wellbeing.

Perhaps our computers are indeed smarter than us. When they feel overloaded and maxed out, they simply freeze up and demand to be shut down.  Upon rebooting, they feel refreshed, recharged and start over with a clean slate. Many of us wish we could hit Control-Alt-Delete and shut down to ultimately start over again too.  […]

The overarching theme of my humble website here is to explore the connection between Mind, Body and Soul. But I so often witness, and personally experience, the dynamic between Mind and Heart that it’s worthy of a discussion. There can be a constant tug-of-war between Mind vs Heart that is typically no contest as the […]

Flashback to 2008…who were you ten years ago?  If you take a moment to seriously reflect on your status a decade ago, you may be astonished as most of us are to acknowledge that our values, preferences, and personalities have changed significantly – often in profound, fundamental ways.  But when asked to project ten years […]
